Our Ifath Nawaz has worked extensively on the HS2 project for a number of years and has experience of the parliamentary process, petitions, negotiations and select committee hearings.

We can advise on:

1. Parliamentary procedure and the hybrid bill process

2. Petitioning for or against proposals made by hybrid bills

3. Drafting petitions

4. Appearance at Select Committee Hearings

5. Parliamentary presentations and briefings

6. Provision of seminars for those concerned with private or hybrid bills

We are experienced in advising local authorities, parish councils, businesses and individual petitioners throughout the hybrid bill process.

"Throughout this demanding workload I have found Ifath Nawaz calm, able to give cogent and objective advice, and able to both be a good team member and lead on projects and issues. Indeed, she has built up a valuable area of experience and knowledge and the high regard our HS2 work has is in no small measure down to her drive and enthusiasm"
